LETTERS FROM THE LIVING
Monday, July 10, 2006
What a day! Woke up at five-plus to witness Italy hoist the World Cup after demonstrating a soccer masterclass on "5 ways to take penalties". Felt sorry for Zizou as I felt he just became a media scapegoat. C'mon, the French team was to blame as a whole. Italy's triumph, on the other hand, was the culmination of everyone's effort.
Anyway, I went back to bed and opened my eyes again when my alarm clock struck seven. Had a hearty breakfast and embarked on my trek to Infineon in the balmy weather - windy but wet. It took me 25 minutes to reach my place of work. Turns out I reported to the wrong building!!! It wasn't the instantly recognisable "white ship", but it was the old building just around its corner. Despite that bummer, I was surprised to meet my NS PTI and friend from EEE, Reza at the wrong place and we made our way together to the right one - where Infineon had its humble beginnings.
Furthermore, I was joined by two other students on IA as well, Qi'En and Jeffrey. Qi'En is in fact from my faculty but we belonged to different lecture groups, yet he managed to check me out beforehand and I was taken aback when he called me Raymond - no further intro needed. Jeffrey is from CE and quite friendly. I shall refrain from boring readers from the boring details of formalities I got through today. In short, we were separated as soon as we went thru' meeting the HR manager for briefing. I am assigned to the Quality Management side, doing vendor management and quality control department. Am I boring you? Do I sound like I care? I just wanna rant!!! Haha... Just a moment of faked insanity, hope it doesn't become real. All in all, I went on tour about the various important places, did some hands on teating in clean room wearing surgeon-like lab coat+shoes+shower cap-like cap, and I get a personal computer!! Internet-less computer!! Argghh... All is not lost, at least I got home at 545pm. Why? Free shuttle bus!!! No more sweaty walks to work!!! Hooray!!!
Okay, okay!!! Have break, have a Dee-jay! Here's metal wrapped in flesh, Mr. Titanium!!
Soundtrack of my life today: "Savin'Me" by Nickelback
